In this study, we assessed the temporal trends of permanent pacemaker implantations in France from 2008 to 2018 using data from the Échantillon Généraliste de Bénéficiaires (EGB) administrative database, a representative sample of the French population. Additionally, we evaluated the impact of transcatheter aortic valve implantations on the overall pacemaker implantation rate. Our data suggest that the incidence of permanent pacemaker implantations in France increased significantly only in patients ≥80 years old, with post-transcatheter aortic valve implantations accounting for at least 2/3 of this increase.
在这项研究中，我们使用来自 Échantillon Généraliste de Bénéficiaires（EGB）行政数据库的数据，评估了 2008 年至 2018 年法国永久性心脏起搏器植入的时间趋势，该数据库是法国人口的代表性样本。此外，我们评估了经导管主动脉瓣植入术对整体起搏器植入率的影响。我们的数据表明，法国永久性心脏起搏器植入的发生率仅在≥80 岁的患者中显著增加，其中经导管主动脉瓣植入术至少占这一增加的 2/3。
